What is a NASA Science Update?

Major Hubble discoveries on NASA television ... Astronomers explain their Hubble discoveries at a press conference, called a NASA Science Update (NSU), broadcast on NASA television. The NSU includes a question and answer session with members of the media.

November 13, 2008: Astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have taken the first visible-light
snapshot of a planet orbiting another star. The images show the planet, named
Fomalhaut b, as a tiny point source of light orbiting the nearby, bright southern star
Fomalhaut, located 25 light-years away in the constellation Piscis Australis. An immense
debris disk about 21.5 billion miles across surrounds the star. Fomalhaut b is orbiting 1.8
billion miles inside the disk's sharp inner edge.
